ipac2 & coin mech?
lilshawn:
if you are just looking at 2 players, you can hook up a "shift" button.
the common would be from your coin drop line from the door and out from your NC (p1) and NO (p2) leads would be your player 1 and player 2 coinup, going to your ipac.
that way you just drop a coin to credit player 1 and hold the button and drop a coin to credit player 2.

This would be the best way I could think of to do it (other than using the default shifted IPAC keys of P1 start + P1 button 1 = coin 1, and P1 start + P2 button 1 = Coin 2)

i'd just use add 2 micro-momentary switches to the face of the coin door. Its probably only a 1/8 inch hole and inconspicuous enough.
I've found that the novelty of the coin mech wares off fairly quickly.

Not for me. None of my machines have a free credit button. The kids especially get a kick out of it. Tokens all the way!

There's also the old "put a microswitch behind the return mechanism" trick, so when you press the coin return you get a credit. ;D
